After the Nexus Q, Google registers a new media center - Faqs Android (blog)

all remember the famous Nexus Q, the media player that was presented last year at the Google I / O that led to the birth of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and the successful Nexus 7 tablet in just under a month can receive its second generation. The famous multimedia center, with its minimalist sectional area , was designed to be permanently connected to Google Play, so that through him we could play all the music purchased on Google Play Music and our personal library music, although that functionality came later.

Nexus Q, which promised much in terms of design and functionality, was finally canceled even though for a period of time could make reservations the device. We will never know if it was due to low demand or because Google decided last minute to wait for further developments in their online store.

Now the FCC has received a request for registration by Google Californians, an application to register a new media center that brings to mind the Nexus Q and whose appearance seems to make sense with the latest changes on Google Play Music with the birth of All Access.

new media center, who knows if an evolution of the Nexus Q or a completely redesigned , has the advantage that now with All Access, we have access to the entire library of music the Mountain View, which is not exactly short, so it would become a media player for home with a catalog to the very height of Spotify, the current king of music streaming.

addition, technology has evolved to the point that the existence of other forms of connectivity, such as NFC, so widespread and Android could lead us to use this player as external speaker for our terminals, both smartphones and tablets, via Bluetooth using NFC couplet , something that would be very comfortable and would, among other things, that it did not need a permanent connection to the Internet, only during the time of the couplet. And we could consider other options such as connectivity via DLNA or Miracast, the Google proprietary protocol that uses the same philosophy, the interconnectivity of devices via WiFi.

So, if rumors are true that Google cited a consumer event next June, we could see a new Nexus Q appear, renewed, along with previously white models and new memories Nexus 4 and the renewal of the range Nexus 7. And who knows if we would not see too the Motorola X Phone.
